I have a question here. While shooting with a 50mm 1.8 or the kitlens 18-105, does the lens affect the vivid effect of the photo ? And what other aspects that affects it too ?

hey guys, wanna ask, is the D90 able to use a full manual lens? i dnt care about the metering and using the camera on manual. will it work? or will it show the error thing like when we change the aperture manually on the 50mm f/1.8 D?

Guys, wanna ask do u use manual? I only use P and A modes. M only for nightshot.

And btw, how to use fill flash? Decrease the flash power and shutter speed?

ohh kk, thanks for sharing!
lol, for my granpa lens i think cant dy. too old, no mount adapter. hahaha

ya sort of silly to think so probably, cos i dont think built-in can be controlled/configured. the power of course

err I thought that just pops it up, no?

hehe.. havent actually read a lot of it. will do will do

which nikon item does it covers for international warranty? plan to purchase as i saw a whole street of shops selling camera accessories in Taiwan.

I usually set Manual 1/32 to my pop-up flash or SB900 on hotshoe. This is sufficient.
Also, if depends on the distance between you and the subject/model.

For D90, the fastest shutter-speed if used with flash = 1/200.

However, if you turn on the FP sync speed in the menu, you can set the shutter-speed faster than 1/200.

You can configure your pop-up flash power only from the menu.
There's no quicker way.

On my D90, my pop-up flash is always set to the lowest 1/64, because I just need it to trigger my external SB900 remotely.

Here's the long story, be patient to read it all.

I assume you already know what the semi-auto is, A and S mode.
If in Aperture mode, camera controls the Shutter-speed for you and still can get good exposure.
If in Shutter-speed mode, camera controls the Aperture for you and still can get good exposure.

The slowest shutter-speed you should use while you are hand-holding it, without tripod is 1/30.
Any shutted-speed slower than 1/30, your camera will capture blur picture due to your hands shaking, even for those professional photographers.

Say, if you always use A-mode, your camera will choose the shutter-speed for you.
Under a normal outdoor sunny day, if you choose Aperture f/22 or f/32 to get very sharp picture, you camera may choose 1/15 or 1/10 for you, which is slower than 1/30. This will result in blur picture due to camera movement.

Therefore, I will advice you use S mode more often instead.

Also, for other models like D40x, D50, D60, D80, which have only 1 dial on the body.
In semi-auto S-mode, you just turn the dial to control shutter-speed. But in A-mode, you will need to press and hold down a button, and turn the dial to control the Aperture. Nikon engineers purposely designed this to "force" you to use S-mode more often. 

It is a UWA with VR after all!

it is well known this is a FX lens.

Yah, earlier I mentioned UWA with VR < anything wrong?

does every photog has a grey card?

1600
gonna start the basic of night photography. dont know they need own battery lol. gnna go find some rechargable batt. 

is there someone using nikon 50mm f1.4 manual focus here?
can show me a pic or two between 50mm f1.4 lens and other lens?

Not a problem, it is normal. nothing to be worried about. This happens on similar systems like D300 and D700. Only the D3 and above series don't have the lines cause their AF indicator is using different technology.

Not a defect don't worry about it.
Take leave!
D700 do have it if not mistaken, just a little fine line which follows whichever AF point lighted up. Most of the time I don't notice the line anyways.

if 0.95 u focus the nose i think the sideburn will be blur d...then the hair straight bokeh-ed lol

i do thnk that i am compulsory to have flash guns. if my frens ask me what is the next thing to buy, i said flash gun

follow my principle rules.
rule no1
better to take swallow DOF rather then noise
rules no2
better take image with noise rather then motion
rules no3
rather to take motion picture rather then dark

then u shud be able to thnk and reconsider to accept the noise.

p/s am i the only person who always bump my ISO up to 1600 even with flash?

think so... damn nice...wake up one day... some1 knock on your door

Canon Representative : "Sir we are from Canon Malaysia, and we would like to sponsor you with this 5DmkII along with the 70-200 f/2.8 L lens, and some other video camcorder"

i dream also never dream of such scenario happening to me lol

...or just use longer exposure lol

I usually use 1/30 or 1/15 shutter when using flash to ensure the background properly exposed. ISO depends, can be from 200-1600 easily sometimes
